Gilmour 869001-1001 Garden Hose 100 Feet 1/2 Inch

Product Description

The GILMOUR 869001-1001 is a 100-foot composite garden hose designed for residential and light commercial outdoor water supply applications. Built with a dual-layer of encased fiber reinforcement, this hose delivers superior durability at a lightweight profile. The 1/2-inch inner diameter pairs with a 3/4-inch GHT thread for standard hose bib and spigot connections. At 7.85 pounds, it is manageable for everyday handling and storage. The composite construction resists common wear while the kink-resistant design helps maintain consistent water flow through the full 100-foot run. Finished in black and blue, it is suited for general landscape, irrigation, and facility maintenance tasks.

This hose is intended for standard outdoor water supply use where a full 100-foot reach is required. The 3/4-inch GHT threaded fittings connect directly to standard outdoor hose bibs, spigots, and most spray nozzles and accessories without adapters. The lightweight composite body reduces fatigue during extended use, making it a practical choice for landscapers, groundskeepers, and facilities maintenance personnel who cover large areas. Note that this hose is not rated for hot water service and is not designed for self-coiling storage. It is also not rated for all-season outdoor storage in freeze-prone climates.

• 100-foot overall length for extended reach in large outdoor areas
• Dual-layer encased fiber reinforcement for enhanced durability and pressure resistance
• Kink-resistant construction maintains steady water flow throughout the full length

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 3/4-inch GHT threaded outdoor hose bibs, spigots, and hose-end accessories. Not compatible with hot water supply lines or all-season outdoor storage applications in freezing conditions.

Installation Notes

Shut off the water supply at the source before connecting or disconnecting the hose. Hand-tighten GHT fittings to the hose bib and inspect the connection for leaks before pressurizing; use pliers only if necessary to prevent over-tightening, which can damage composite fittings. Drain the hose fully after each use and store indoors or in a sheltered location, as this hose is not rated for all-season outdoor storage. Hot water sources must not be used with this hose.
